VPC-Win95 ran so well on my memory-laden G3 that I never bothered. I
just wrote an Applescript hack to "quit the finder". I installed WinNT
and it runs a bit too slow. In fact, both OS'es run about as I would
expect on a 100MHz Pentium. So I tried the "VPS tip" and, sure enough,
speed increased dramitically, but I have no networking. Event Viewer
shows the Adaptor fails on startup. I tried tossing "Built-in Ethernet"
into the extensions folder, but still no go.

I love Filemaker, but Eudora Planner should write html calendars and
address books at least as well as Now Up-to-date server (which I
currently use and love). I plan to switch to the new product now that
our NT server is up and running. NUD took some res-edit tweaking to make
the web pages look nice, but easily done. Eudora Planner Mac (beta)
looks much better than the NOW stuff.
I will be out of the internet for a couple weeks...
